VERTIGO

Hey friends.I'm typing from bed today.I got a new spell of Vertebrobasilar migraine and mysystem is so run down that my mouth is full of reallypainful ulcers and I can't eat proper food.Don't worry, I did see my GP today and I got medsfor the Vertebrobasilar migraine, it will make mesick and very tired for two weeks but I rather be outof it for two weeks than a year of vertigo.(I got the wrong diagnose last time so I suffered withthis vertigo shit for almost a year and a half.)

This means crafting and watching Twin Peaks I guess.I got so many beautiful artificial flowers while we werein Holland and now when I really can't do much else Iwill have a go.

Talking about craft, here's some new earrings I madewhile we were in Sweden...

One big *BLAH* to vertigo!!I hope your meds kick in and get rid of the darn thing soon. I have suffered from vertigo and if you ask me it was SERIOUSLY the worst time in my life.

I started feeling bouts of dizziness and thought I was having anxiety attacks, so I didn't do anything about it. Then it got worse to the point I could feel the ground shaking when trains would be going by. The tracks are like 5 blocks away for goondess sake. I then realized that it was surely not anxiety causing all the weirdness so I went to the Dr. found out I had vertigo. It had gotten so bad I felt like I was slowly falling when just sitting in a chair. Or when I laid in bed I felt like I was on a air mattress out on a lake. (For almost two years I was completely miserable.) For the first year I barely went out because I felt like I was walking on a marshmellow ground. When I would try to explain vertigo to people I swear they thought I was weird or something. *lol* All I can say is if you have never had it. You sure as hell don't want it. If you have had it you never wanna deal with it again.

WHO IS MISS RASCAL?

I'm a Jewish dame from Sweden who got swept off my feet by a brown eyed handsome man (musician, of course) and ended up here in the UK almost 8 years ago. I'm obsessed with the 1940's
and 1950's, my home is filled to the brim with goodies from that era.
I design and create vintage style jewelry and accessories.
In my free time I'm a magpie, I really love scouting for vintage bargains. I do try to reduce my carbon foot print and spend as little as possible, therefore I rather buy vintage and second hand. This blog is my personal space where I write about my frugal lifestyle, finds and creations. Hopefully you will be inspired to do something creative too.
